“Yuvi (Yuvraj) to me has always been like a big brother. Although the first few experiences were not good. So, Yuvi has a spot in the bus where he goes and sits. And I was sitting there. That’s where me and Yuvi had sort of .. I will not say argument but we had an eye to eye contact,” Rohit can be heard saying in the video.
“Not that he is arrogant but he is Yuvraj Singh. Yuvraj Singh means attitude and all that,” he added.
Yuvi said, “I remember when he came into the team and I shook his hand. He tells this story with too much extra spice (Masala).”
